Re: What Did You Pass Up Today? Winter '12/'13

I passed on several bottles of Willett Family Estate 21yr cask strength. There were 3 different barrels available. I understand some early K&L private selections of this release were Stitzel-Weller bourbon, but I doubt the later/standard releases are. As usual, I have a hard time dropping that kind of coin on a bourbon from an unknown source.

Re: What Did You Pass Up Today? Winter '12/'13

After hearing all the acclaim for the 4RSmbLE (and since I love the regular SmB) I searched all over to find some around here and couldn't. So I called a store that I've bought Pappy from before to ask if they could get any. Next day the call and say they have it.

So I rush down to get a bottle for me and one for my dad for his bday. Only to find out that it's the 2011, not the 2012.

I'm sure the 2011 is good, but everything I've read said it's not the 2012. And I'm not going to spend over $200 on two bottles of the wrong bourbon.

The store is going to call to see if they can get the 2012. I hope so.
